Tillet B4 Carbon/GRP Seat
hobbsy - 1/2/11 at 09:32 PM

I was going to go for this myself as he's fairly local but after breaking out the tape measure it won't sit far back enough in my Fury to allow my lanky frame to also go in.

Ok it's still £350 (so not exactly locost) but they are £600+ new - spend to save etc!

EDIT, meant B4 (not R4!!!)

Never seen a 'carbon-look' Tillet before... it's either carbon or plastic - and that one looks plastic.

he'd have to pay me £350 to take anything 'carbon look' off him

and yeah, they're just black plastic... not carbon look

I think he chose his words poorly with "Carbon look", if you look on the Tillett site it explains that they are carbon on the top layer and GRP below:

They do also do a black GRP only B4 for less money (£437 vs £548 both +VAT)
